This collection of photographs is made available by the British Antarctic Survey (BAS). It contains descriptions and colour images of fossils that are displayed in a 'Type and Figured Fossil Collection'. The collection comprises: annelida; arthropoda; brachiopoda; cnidaria; echinodermata; ichnotaxa; mollusca; plantae; protista; and vertebrata. The BAS fossil collection was started in the 1940s and now contains around 40,000 fossil specimens.
